Here is the full Match Card for this week's Friday Night edition which is scheduled to air on September 22, 2023, live from Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, AZ. ## Friday Night SmackDown currently airs live every Friday on Fox from 8:00 ET–10:00 PM ET in the United States.

She won her first WWE Women's Championship that night. Asuka, who was the previous champion, is due for a rematch in your opinion. This rematch is happening in two weeks from now. ## The announcement for this match came on the September 8th episode of SmackDown. Charlotte Flair and Shotzi faced off against SKY and Bayley. During the match, Asuka interfered, causing Sky and Bayley to lose. Afterward, Asuka had a quick face-off with IYO Sky. Later that same night, during a backstage chat, SKY confirmed that she would give Asuka a title match, which is now scheduled to happen in two weeks. ## Rey Mysterio & Santos Escobar vs. Montez Ford & Angelo Dawkins ## During the September 15 SmackDown episode, Santos Escobar threw down a challenge to Rey Mysterio for the WWE United States Championship. Rey, with a smile, accepted the challenge. ## After this, Bobby Lashley, Angelo Dawkins, and Montez Ford made their entrance and interrupted the group. Later, it was announced that Mysterio and Escobar would face Dawkins and Ford on September 22. ## John Cena to appear on SmackDown ## The Greatest of All-Time is set to make his comeback to SmackDown this week after a pretty eventful Friday last week. ## On the previous SmackDown, we spotted Cena backstage, hanging out with The Rock. Later in the night, Cena was the special guest on The Grason Waller Effect. During the segment, Solo and Jimmy Uso launched an attack on John Cena, prompting Styles to step in and assist Cena. ## Predicted Match Card ## #1. Austin Theory Cuts A Promo ## On last week's SmackDown, The Rock made a surprising comeback and, with some assistance from Pat McAfee, took down Austin Theory. The Rock's return occurred while Pat and Theory were engaged in a promo earlier in the show. ## The Most Electrifying Man in All of Entertainment, along with Pat McAfee, was observed delivering People's Elbows to Austin Theory. So, it's likely that Austin Theory will have a promo to address what happened to him last week on SmackDown. ## #2. AJ Styles & John Cena vs. Jimmy Uso & Solo Sikoa ## Last week on SmackDown, AJ Styles and Finn Balor had a singles match. Priest and Dominik were barred from ringside to prevent distractions. The match was going perfectly for AJ Styles until Jimmy Uso unexpectedly appeared out of nowhere. He caused a distraction that allowed Balor to secure the victory. ## Later in the main event of the show, Solo Sikoa came out to assist Jimmy Uso in launching a 2-on-1 attack on John Cena. AJ Styles rushed into the ring to aid Cena in fending off the assault. ## #3. IYO SKY vs Asuka To Be Made Offical For WWE Fastlane ## At SummerSlam, Sky used her Money in the Bank contract to challenge Bianca Belair after a triple threat match with Asuka and Charlotte Flair. She won her first WWE Women's Championship that night. Asuka, who was the previous champion, is due for a rematch in your opinion. This rematch is happening in two weeks from now. ## The announcement for this match came on the September 8th episode of SmackDown. Charlotte Flair and Shotzi faced off against SKY and Bayley. During the match, Asuka interfered, causing Sky and Bayley to lose. Afterward, Asuka had a quick face-off with IYO Sky. ## Later that same night, during a backstage chat, SKY confirmed that she would give Asuka a title match, which is now scheduled to happen in two weeks. I think the match wouldn't end cleanly, so it should be scheduled for WWE's upcoming event, "Fastlane." ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk...

Here is the full Match Card for this week's Friday Night edition which is scheduled to air on September 15, 2023, live from Ball Arena in Denver, CO. ## Friday Night SmackDown currently airs live every Friday on Fox from 8:00 ET–10:00 PM ET in the United States. WWE SmackDown starts live at 1 am in the UK on BT Sport 1 on Saturday mornings. ## WWE SmackDown Time In Australia: It airs live on at 10 am (AEST) on Fox8 ## WWE SmackDown Time In Canada: It airs live every Friday at 8 Am on Sportsnet 360 ## WWE SmackDown Time In South Africa: The show also airs live on Supersport in South Africa on Saturday at 02:00 am CAT ## SmackDown Time In Italy: In Italy, SmackDown airs on DMAX at 2:00 pm with the international version of one-hour shows airing on Cielo in Italian ## WWE SmackDown Time In India: SmackDown airs live on Sony Ten 1 HD and Sony Ten 1 in India at 5:30 am ## Tickets Are Available Here!## Confirmed Match Card ## "The Grayson Waller Effect" with special guest John Cena ## It's "The Grayson Waller Effect" this coming week on Friday with John Cena making an appeance as a special guest. Grayson Waller is quite familiar with John Cena, having experienced an unexpected Attitude Adjustment from the renowned "Greatest of All Time" during WWE Money in the Bank. ## LA Knight battles The Miz in a WWE Payback rematch ## LA Knight has been locked in a heated rivalry with The Miz ever since his SummerSlam victory. Their feud escalated to a match at Payback, where Knight emerged victorious, with a surprising appearance by John Cena as the special guest referee. ## However, Knight feels Cena played a role in his win, so he's challenging The Miz again next week on SmackDown. This match was confirmed during the September 8th episode of SmackDown, following Knight's win against Austin Theory. ## WINNER PREDICTION: LA Knight ## Predicted Match Card ## #1. John Cena To Overcome Grayson Waller ## This won't be their first face-off, as John Cena and Grayson Waller crossed paths in the WWE Money In The Bank ring. "The Greatest of All Time" hit Grayson with an Attitude Adjustment. Tonight, they'll share the same ring again, but this time, Cena will be Waller's guest. We can't predict what will go down. ## In my view, John Cena might launch a powerful attack and could end up challenging Waller to a highly anticipated match in the near future. ## #2. The Street Profits Vs. The Judgment Day ## On last Friday's SmackDown, The Judgment Day won against The Brawling Brutes. After the match, Bobby Lashley and The Street Profits came out and got in the face of The Judgement. This could mean that The Street Profits might face The Judgement Day in a tag team match, and Bobby Lashley is keeping an eye on things. ## #3. LA Knight To Defeat The Miz Clean ## I'd pick LA Knight to take down The Miz decisively, as Knight is currently one of the most popular figures in WWE. At WWE Payback, with John Cena as the special guest referee, Knight secured a victory against The Miz. Now, he's getting another shot at The Miz, but this time, I believe LA Knight will leave no room for debate as he defeats him cleanly. ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk...

The July 21 episode of WWE Friday Night SmackDown is set to air on FS1 instead of the FOX Network, but that doesn't mean it won't be an action-packed show. Jey Uso eagerly awaits Roman Reigns' acceptance of his challenge for a one-on-one match, and on July 21, Reigns will return to SmackDown for a face-to-face confrontation with Uso. ## During this encounter, they will establish the Rules of Engagement for their upcoming bout. This announcement was made by Paul Heyman on July 14, shortly before Uso engaged in a physical altercation with his younger brother, Solo Sikoa. Heyman placed the blame for Jimmy Uso's injury on Jey, leading to tensions escalating between them. ## In a surprising turn of events, Jey Uso gained the upper hand over his younger brother and even delivered a powerful Superkick to Paul Heyman. He then proceeded to unleash his fury upon his brother, striking him with a steel chair. ## Additionally, the July 21 episode will feature a thrilling Fatal 4-Way match involving Rey Mysterio, LA Knight, Cameron Grimes, and Sheamus. The winner of this match will earn the opportunity to face Santos Escobar on July 28, vying for the position of the next number one contender for Austin Theory and the WWE United States Championship. ## WWE SmackDown - July 21 ## WWE United States Championship Invitational Semi-Final: Rey Mysterio vs. LA Knight vs. Cameron Grimes vs. Sheamus## Jey Uso and Roman Reigns set the Rules of Engagement.## To stay updated with all the latest combat sports news, add Sacnilk.com to your Google News feeds and follow us on Twitter.
